It says "The IRA decided to assassinate Thatcher during the 1981" on the front page but she died in the 21st century years later. Needs an edit there 94.194.201.102 (talk) 00:58, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing needs to be changed. They decided to assassinate her in 1981 and tried (and failed) to do so in 1984. Her death was unconnected to the IRA, so I'm not sure why it needs changing. - SchroCat (talk) 08:09, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The term "the British government" is the commonly used one - something the people of Northern Ireland have complained about previously. - SchroCat (talk) 08:09, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Britain is the generally accepted term just like how those in the USA may be called American despite not even being the largest country in the Americas though undisputabley the most notable,
the largest island in the UK is called "Great Britain" but is referred to as mainland often by people who live on islands actually called Mainland for example Mainland(Orkney) 94.194.201.102 (talk) 11:44, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The full name of the United Kingdom is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and it is a single sovereign state. "British" means belonging to or relating to the United Kingdom (the whole of it including England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales) and so is the correct demonym for the government of it - it is the British Government. -- DeFacto (talk). 14:07, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is a reference in the infobox. Is that in line with MoS policies? I would expect the infobox to summarize the info later in the article, which is already cited PhotographyEdits (talk) 21:13, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
